Abstract: An oven includes a water fill assembly including a holder having a receiver fixed therewith and a drawer body defining a water-receiving cavity, an opening to the water-receiving cavity, and a fill outlet from the water-receiving cavity. The drawer body defines a fluid flow path in from the opening and out through the fill outlet and includes a blocking element fixed with the drawer body. The drawer body is slideable with respect to the holder between an opened position, wherein the opening to the cavity is exposed to an environment surrounding the oven and the blocking element is spaced from the receiver, and a closed positon, wherein the drawer body is retracted into the holder and the blocking element to engage with the receiver to close the fluid flow path between the opening of the drawer body and a conduit to a water reservoir.
